Good food. And ok prices. And better have a big appetite, because the dishes are big. The inside looks isn't that great, it gives you that feeling that is not going to be tasty, but it actually is! I'd come back here if ever again in Santa Rosa

Indeedy! I agree with you! The inside is a more New Mexican style to it! The food is delicious in my opinion! Glad you ate here!

This place is great. The staff is super friendly, and the food is amazing. in town for a few days and eat here a couple of times and was never disappointed. They also have a great gift shop!

I'm not sure why Maps marked this as a question...

We ate at your restaurant this summer. Food was wonderful. We had Enchiladas that were served with beans and another wonderful side that had homminy in it. What was that side dish and how do we make it at home Thanks Jerry Smith

They call it pasole

I asked for beef tacos. I was told I couldn't do it because it was a special order. And they don't do that. I think if I want beef I should be able to get beef if I'm willing to pay for it. Girl on the phone keep trying to push ground beef on me

Well there are other places to choose from. Personal beefs not to your liking are not constructive to the other menu items that are awesome. Put on your big girl panties and quietly make another choice.

Do you serve chorizo and eggs

I don't believe so

What kind of beer is on tap

Local, had a small menu

Will you new open Christmas day

Hello Jessica! So our employees may spend the day with their families, we will be closed on Christmas Day. So sorry that we may miss you.

There used to be a restaurant called Red Rooster Cafe.. Is this where it was?

Ramona, you probably served my parents, they really enjoyed this place.... Why did it close do you know?

how many wings per order and how many mozz sticks per order

I only ate Mexican food. I believe I had red enchiladas and a relleno. The Blue Moon makes my top ten for enchiladas. I will definitely return.

Great little cafe, menu covers Mexican and American food. Fresh homemade chips and salsa.Chips came to my table warm... yummy.Food was delicious and very filling, in fact so filling there was no room for their delicious looking deserts. Staff was friendly.They also have an area where you can buy gifts.

Had some delicious food here! Cute, friendly place in a small town off I-66 but BUSY! Serving mostly southwestern food at a reasonable price. I'll go back if I'm ever in the area again!

I never post bad reviews! Do not eat here during Covid. Staff don’t wear masks, the waitress said it was not mandatory and didn’t seem to care (should have left then) they were using hands to dip into a little bucket to dig for fruit to put on weak margaritas. A big fat guy (might be owner) sneezed out loud in his hands and kept doing what he was doing!! corn chips stale, microwave food. Our waiter was nice enough but for a place that’s been shut down for a while they should be a lot nicer to customers!!! I felt bad and gave a tip but now regret it... keep driving!!!

I got to go. This place was recommended by a local. Ordered the enchiladas with blue corn and chicken, smothered in green chili. It was delicious. I would also note that there is a cute gift shop and the staff and customers were adhering to the CDC recommendations. Felt safe to get food (to-go).

Service was very slow, food was not good, guacamole was days old and brown, worst margarita I’ve ever had, could not even finish it. They forgot to put our appetizer in, when the manager came by he did not apologize but told us we still needed to pay for everything. Everything was extremely expensive, $5 for a corona beer that was warm!?! Very disappointed.

Stopped here on my way back home, I ordered the nachos and chicken quesadillas. The beef nachos had under cooked meat on them and tasted like something from the school cafeteria. I know it was late, but I would expect for restaurants to have the same caliber of food from open to close.

Stopped there for a T Bone Steak. My husband has been here before and he loved it. When we went back to the truck there was a terrible smell 🤮 the meat was rotton!!! I wonder if the cook didn't smell it cause it was very intense. We got our money back but it has put us off for the day. The waitress was very nice but we will never stop here again.

It's a nice change from truckstop food. I loved the brussel sprouts, but the nachos were a bit dry & we didn't even eat a quarter of them. Salsa was on point. Consider serving more chips. All other food servings were generous. Everything else was okay taste wise. The restaurant could use a few updates even if they want to keep the retro look. The bathroom was clean as far as I could tell, but very dark. Service was okay.

The service was friendly and fast. The Green Chile Enchiladas de Santa Fe were delicious with just the right amount of spice. My husband's Patty Melt with green chile was also delicious. It was served on rye bread with tasty crispy fries. The sweet tea here was not good. It tasted like they poured sugar into the glass after it was brewed. But the unsweetened iced tea was good. My kids gobbled up the fries but barely touched the grilled cheese made with two slices of American cheese.

Do not stop at this restaurant. I repeat do not stop at this restaurant!!!!! I ordered the chili cheese fries and it was fries with shredded cheese and what looked like some picante sauce. I didn't mind it to much but that's not what I wanted. I also ordered the nacho deluxe and the meat was cold and looked like it came from a can and was microwaved for a few minutes. I took one bite and decided I was not going to eat that. I told them I didn't like it and thought they would offer me something else. They just gave me the check. I told them I was not going to pay for the meal and they called the cops. Never in my ife have I ever been made to pay for a meal I didn't like. And to top everything off waiter was not wearing a mask.

We were hungry after travelling. We ordered enchiladas. We waited 20 minutes and still no food. We got served water and chips. I couldn't rate the food since ii was taking a long time. They weren't that busy. It is a shame since we like route 66. We try to stop there at different restaurants, when traveling. We walked out still hungry. We couldn't get our food on route 66.

Delicious! And the posole was cooked perfectly. We had steak and shrimp fajitas, and the special blue corn chicken enchiladas. Enchiladas served with beans and posole. Fajitas served with fresh guacamole, sour cream and warm flour tortillas. I asked for extra cheese on the side. Meal started with complimentary warm and fresh crispy tortillas and salsa. We inhaled them. It was a busy Monday night there, and server was lovely. Obviously had many tables to take care of at the same time, and had a smile for every customer. I would definitely go back! Overhead that they also serve breakfast.

Atmosphere, service, and food were very good. There's a little gift shop attached with New Mexican souvenirs ranging from cheap kitsch to finely crafted pottery.For the kids, they have a little "treasure chest" out of which each kid can select one little toy. Great road trip stop!

I can't believe I have driven by here for 30 years and never made the opportunity to stop in. Wow! Have I been missing out! Fabulous food, the atmosphere was amazing, the service was on believable. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. My waitress was that good. Such an amazing lady. She took me back in time it seemed, to the real days of trucking when the restaurants were all about quality & customer service. Lots of big truck parking in the back too. When I roll through Santa Rosa now, y'all can find me hanging out here. Just look for my big silver Volvo & ask for "Everywhere".
